Earlier this month, UFC former light heavy weight champion and resident “Huntington Beach Bad Boy” Tito Ortiz had some dramatic affairs dealing with his retired porn star fiancée, Jenna Jameson. Allegedly, one of Jameson’s old friends has been terrorizing the couple and their children, and stealing property from their house. Shana Burroughs has also apparently been bringing prescription Rx drugs, reportedly Xanax and Oxycodone. This poses a huge problem for Jameson, who was once addicted to the drug. They requested a restraining order against Burroughs, however, it was denied. The judge felt the problem could wait until a formal hearing on June 15.

And who could’ve guessed with being engaged to a porn star even more drama would ensue. Recent reports now show that Tito Ortiz had gone behind Jameson’s back to file the restraining order. There are now claims that he is also lying to the judge, and that he is simply attempting to destroy and sabotage the two ladies’ friendship. Because of course he has nothing better to do with his busy life of training and conditioning than sabotaging his fiancée’s friendships. Burroughs says that Ortiz is simply mad at her because she didn’t back him up when he publicly talked about Jameson’s drug problems. She has also stated that Jameson didn’t even know Ortiz had filed a restraining order against her.
Honestly, it’s not a surprise Ortiz has drama. Even when he first started dating Jameson there were complications about her risqué past. In 2006, he was supposed to be a guest of honor at a Marine Corps ball. He, however, cancelled because they would not allow him to bring a porn star as his date. Also, in 2010 there were numerous counts of domestic assault between Ortiz and Jameson on both sides. The investigation still remains open, although the two have dropped the claims against each other. In MMA, or any sport, this kind of negative publicity immensely damages your reputation. First off, it is hard enough for Ortiz to try and defend his relationship with a retired porn star. And by having these kinds of altercations only further damages his reputation. We will soon find out the outcome of this new dramatic twist of events for Tito Ortiz on June 15.
